Re: Attention!! F.A.Q.s thread...

A post I have feen seeing quite a bit reacently is "What lowering springs should I put on my car?"

IMO if you want to lower your car, do it right or don't do it at all! If you want your car lowered 3.5 inches, and get out of it as cheap as possiblethen do it, but it's going to ride rough as hell(and considered a ricer).

Are the coilovers on E-bay good?

No, they are crap! they corrode, and ride rough as hell, ayso they slip and springs are not uncommon to snap due to weight.

What should I do to properly Hammer my car?

IMO 1) Bushings 2) Camberkit/Alingment 3) struts and springs 4) Swaybars 5) Strutbars

What springs and strut combo is the best?

It is all in what you like, I prefere the Eibach prosprings on Koni yellow for the bang for you buck. then as soon as that is performed, it's not nessicary for an alingment, but I hightly recomend it...

And remember that lowering your car is to increase your cornering, braking, and acceleraion performance, so what the heck is the point of droping your car 2" and having -2.5 degree camber? The suspention will make or brake a car so choose wisely....
